The Indonesian Dance Festival (IDF) is a biannual international contemporary dance festival. This year IDF is held in several venues in Jakarta, including Komunitas Salihara. On the closing night of the festival at Komunitas Salihara, we will present Kris Is, a collaboration between Arco Renz-Kobalt Works (Belgium) and Ali Sukri (Padangpanjang). This dance work combines dynamic and intense dance movements and theatrical gestures that are based on Minangkabau-style martial art silat.

Besides the main performance, there will be additional events which will start in the afternoon. These include a discussion about collaboration and coproduction, mother-child collaboration performances, Minangkabau silat performance and a performance by the improvisational movement group Contact Gonzo (Japan) collaborating with a photographer and a heavy metal band.

Tickets: IDR75,000 (general) / IDR35,000 (students)
